44. COPYRIGHT CLEARANCE CENTER'S SERVICE GROWTH.
D.P. Waite Copyright Clearance Center, 21 Congress Street,
Salem, MA 01970
The function and features of CCC's present services for handling
photocopy permissions for Users of scientific journals and
other serials are described. The first three year's start-up experience
is summarized showing a modest acceleration in growth.
Program initiatives have been taken to assure CCC's continuing
growth in terms of numbers of registered Users, registered journal
titles, the types of serial publications handled and the number
of publishers participating.
Expanding CCC permission procedures to handle books,
newspapers, audio-visuals and other non-print media including
electronic will be feasible once adequate utilization of present services
is achieved by publishers and photocopy User organizations.

45. CAS DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICE. J.L. Wood. Chemical
Abstracts Service, P.O. Box 3012, Columbus, OH 43210.
Since 1945 the American Chemical Society has attempted to
provide documents and document copies to users of publications
and services offered by the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS). The
actions leading up to the introduction in September 1980 of the
CAS Document Delivery Service will be reviewed. The policies that
govern the Document Delivery Service which combines photocopy
provision with interlibrary lease will be explained and the operating
experience of the Service summarized. Interactions between the
Service, its customers, the Copyright Clearance Center, Inc., on-line
vendors and publishers will be discussed. Problems associated
with the Service will be noted.

PHOTOCOPYING IN THE U.S. D.D. McDonald. King Research,
Inc., 1025 Vermont Ave., N.W., Suite 240, Washington, D.C.,
20005.
King Research, under contract to the Copyright Office of the
Library of Congress, is conducting a series of surveys as input to
the Copyright Office's upcoming 5-year report to Congress on the
new copyright law. We are conducting three surveys. The Library
Survey is composed of a mail questionnaire phase and an on-site
data collection phase. The latter involves the collection of original
data on library photocopying transactions by a subsample of
public, academic, federal, and special libraries in the U.S. The
Library Survey generates detailed data on library photocopying and
interlibrary loan volume. The Publisher Survey involves a mail questionnaire
survey of U.S. book publishers and U.S. publishers of
scholarly, scientific, technical, and other serials. This survey is
designed to generate data on photocopying permission requests,
photocopying royalty income, and reprint sales and distribution.
Finally, we are conducting personal interview surveys in U.S.
libraries to obtain data from library users themselves on (1) library
materials they have photocopied during the past six months, and (2)
the library materials they are photocopying during their visit to the
library. These User Surveys will also generate data on why users
make their photocopies as well as data on public awareness of
copyrights.

47. COMPARISON OF THE TREATMENT OF LITERATURE IN
GMELIN AND IN OTHER CHEMICAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS.
Prof. Dr. E. Fluck and Dr. W. Lippert. Gmelin Institute,
Frankfurt, West Germany.
Gmelin is the most up-to-date reference work and compilation
of data in the field of inorganic chemistry, of equal importance in
the spheres of physical chemistry, physics, metallurgy, chemical
technology, geochemistry, mineralogy, and crystallography. The
Handbook draws together carefully sifted material from the primary
literature, into coherent groups of related subject matter, independent
of its source of date of publication. Gmelin is distinguished
from abstracting journals which are limited to a chronologically
and subjectively isolated treatment of published findings. In contrast
to other information media, The Gmelin Handbook presentsmaterial in a form permitting comparative assessment of published
results. The logical grouping of related findings, including
references to allied concepts, together with the critical evaluation
of all aspects of a particular substance or subject and a review of
current, not yet completed work, affords a unique insight into the
field under study. Typical examples are used to illustrate the difference
in the treatment of the literature in Chemical Abstracts and in
Gmelin.

48. THE GMELIN HANDBOOK-ITS ORGANIZATION, SCOPE
AND TREATMENT OF SUBJECT MATTER. Dr. W. Lippert.
Gmelin Institute, Frankfurt, West Germany.
The arrangement of subject matter in the Handbook is explained.
Every chemical element and compound has a unique location
in the Handbook based on "system numbers". The Gmelin Institute's
staff, organizational structure, as well as the working techniques
used in Handbook preparation are described. For each substance
the arrangement of subject matter generally is in terms of
the following subjects: History, Occurrence, Geochemistry, Economic
Deposits, Minerals, Technology, Preparation, Element, Atom
and Atomic Ions, Physical Properties, Electrochemical Behavior,
Chemical Reactions, Detection and Determination, Toxicity, Compounds,
Alloys.... The Gmelin Institute is committed to review and
critically evaluate the totality of the literature on a given subject in
the light of present knowledge. Thus, The Gmelin Handbook provides
chemists with an indispensable tool in their work.

49. COVERAGE OF ORGANOMETALLIC COMPOUNDS IN
GMELIN, THE GMELIN FORMULA INDEX, STATUS AND OUTLOOK.
Dr. F.A. Schroder and Prof. Dr. E. Fluck. Gmelin Institute,
Frankfurt, West Germany.
One of the most rapidly developing fields in chemistry is the
interface between inorganic and organic chemistry. For this reason,
The Gmelin Handbook-starting almost ten years ago-has
begun the coverage of organometallic compounds. An overview is
presented of the material published to date as well as an outlook on
volumes in preparation.
Formula Index-In order to facilitate user access, a Gmelin
Formula Index has been prepared. It is not purely a Formula Index:
listings of subject entries are also included whereever this seems
necessary or purposeful. Generally, this occurs for those chemical
elements and their compounds whose description in the Handbook
covers a large number of pages. Compounds are listed under the
empirical and standard chemical formulae, which are familiar to all
chemists.
The current status is described. 430 volumes with 135,000
pages of text have been published. Preparations are underway to
employ computer techniques where applicable. These steps are intended
to meet future user requirements and to maintain and enhance
the importance of The Gmelin Handbook in the age of computers.TRANSLATIONS
